'''Glasgow Prestwick International Airport''' {{Airport codes|PIK|EGPK}} is a facility situated north of the town of [[Prestwick]] in [[Ayrshire]], [[Scotland]]. Although officially called ''Glasgow'' Prestwick International [[Airport]] because [[Glasgow]], Scotland's largest city, is only 46 km (29 miles) North-East of the airport, most people, particularly locals, refer to it simply as '''Prestwick Airport'''. AcordingAccording to the airport's new slogan, it's "Pure Dead Brilliant"!

In physical terms, Prestwick remains Scotland's largest airfield, although in passenger traffic terms it sits in third place after Glasgow's main airport, [[Glasgow International Airport|Glasgow International]] and [[Edinburgh Airport]], both of which are operated by [[BAA plc|BAA]].
